Fujitsu Creates its Own Hadoop Tool

January 19, 2015

Fujitsu has joined many other companies by taking Hadoop and creating its own software from it to leverage big data. IT Web Open Source’s article, “Fujitsu Makes It Easy For Customers To Reap The Benefits Of Big Data With PRIMEFLEX For Hadoop” divulges the details about the new software.

The new Hadoop application is part of Fijitsu’s PRIMEFLEX software line of workload specific integrated systems. Its purpose is similar to many other big data software on the market: harness big data and make use of actionable analytics. Fujitsu describes it as a wonder software:

“Fujitsu has developed PRIMEFLEX for Hadoop to simplify and tame big data. The powerful, dedicated all-in-one hardware cluster is designed to integrate with existing hardware infrastructures, introducing distributed parallel processing based on Cloudera Enterprise Hadoop. This is an open-source software framework which gathers, processes and analyses data from various sources, then puts together and presents the big picture on how to act on the information gathered.”

Fijitsu is a recognized and respected brand, but the big data market is saturated with other companies that offer comparable software. Other companies also started with a Hadoop based application as part of their software line-up. Fujitsu is entering the Hadoop analytics a little late.
